JEE Advanced 2023 — Paper 2 — Question 41

A cylindrical furnace has height (H)(\mathrm{H}) and diameter (D) both 1 m . It is maintained at temperature 360 K . The air gets heated inside the furnace at constant pressure PαP_{\alpha} and its temperature becomes T=360 KT=360 \mathrm{~K}. The hot air with density ρ\rho rises up a vertical chimney of diameter d=0.1 m\mathrm{d}=0.1 \mathrm{~m} and height h=9 m\mathrm{h}=9 \mathrm{~m} above the furnace and exits the chimney (see the figure). As a result, atmospheric air of density ρα=1.2 kg m−3\rho_{\alpha}=1.2 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-3}, pressure Pα\mathrm{P}_{\alpha} and temperature Tα=300 K\mathrm{T}_{\alpha}=300 \mathrm{~K} enters the furnace. Assume air as an ideal gas, neglect the variations in ρ\rho and T inside the chimney and the furnace. Also ignore the viscous effects. [Given: The acceleration due to gravity g=10 m s−2\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-2} and π=3.14\pi=3.14 ]

Considering the air flow to be streamline, the steady mass flow rate of air exiting the chimney is ____\_\_\_\_ gms−1\mathrm{gm} \mathrm{s}^{-1}.

Step-by-step solution

Pa=\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{a}}= constant So, ρaTA=ρT\rho_{\mathrm{a}} \mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{A}}=\rho \mathrm{T} So, ρ=ρ0TaT=1.2×300360\rho=\frac{\rho_{0} T_{a}}{T}=\frac{1.2 \times 300}{360} ρ=1 kg/m3\rho=1 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3} Applying Bernoulli's equation between points (1) and (2) Assuming velocity of hot air inside furnace ∼0\sim 0 Pa+0+0=Pa−ρag(10)+ρg(10)+12ρv2P_{a}+0+0=P_{a}-\rho_{a} g(10)+\rho g(10)+\frac{1}{2} \rho v^{2} So, v=2(ρa−ρ)g(10)ρ=(2)(0.2)100=40 m/sv=\sqrt{\frac{2\left(\rho_{\mathrm{a}}-\rho\right) \mathrm{g}(10)}{\rho}}=\sqrt{(2)(0.2) 100}=\sqrt{40} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} Q=π(0.1)24(40)(103)=49.61gm/s\mathrm{Q}=\frac{\pi(0.1)^{2}}{4}\left(\sqrt{40)}\left(10^{3}\right)=49.61 \mathrm{gm} / \mathrm{s}\right.
